I got my primary residence ready this year to work as an STR while I'm out of town, and it's been exciting to start getting experience as a host and to see firsthand how easy it is once you get everything set up.However, I know tax season is coming and that it's important to have an accountant with experience working with real estate investors (and who preferably also invests themselves).

We love talking up and motivating others to succeed in becoming financially free through Real Estate.For the most part I believe 90-95% of the people here on BP are yearning to learn from more experienced and successful investors that already have gone down that road they want to travel.Me personally I cherish these memories of getting help and helping others since I was a guest with Brandon and Scott Trench as the hosts on Podcast 238 back in Aug of 2017.  

Mile High Hosts (STR group) just took it on in case you're still looking.

However, we were curious on undeveloped land if things like Hip Camp and private fishing hosting etc that generate income would be sufficient to purchase the land without paying capital gains from salE Of the rental house.

FWIW the seller could stop paying the mortgage, or sell the place to someone else unless y9ou clouded the title etc etc.   

Of course, if this person is a family member or very close friend that may be different...their judgement may be clouded...but in reality, they should not be giving you money to play with if you have nothing of value to bring to the Real Estate business..........

I host a monthly meetups Houston, the next one is Jan 26th.

@Phillip Moses - Based off what you said you likely cannot make it but there is an event this Thursday 1/20/22 at 6:30pm EST hosted by FlipCo.

I've seen where hosts on Airbnb require age of 21, 25, or 30 years old for some rentals.

I'm still currently active duty, but never too early to start preparing.I'd recommend you check out the "Military Cashflow" podcast hosted by Dan Wynn and Mike Glaspie.
